Bearmouth Extreme Race Report

May 29th 2021

30 experienced racers lined up for the first annual Bearmouth Extreme May 29th. Racers were organize at our discretion and to accommodate their preference. Two racers were released every 15-30 seconds. The short prologue proved challenging for most. The Spectators had great views as each racer made it through the first hundred yards of the course. Our course was 7.5 miles of relentless difficult riding. No one individual obstacle on the course was overly difficult, however, there were not many breaks.

Evan Ask, who ended up P1 on the podium cam through his first lap at 37 min. He averaged 4.8mph on his first lap. Keith Sweeton was next with a first lap time of 41min followed by Mason Rutledge about 1 min behind at 42min. Buck Dolan had the 4th fastest lap time at 43 min. These were all lap one. Things started to speed up just a little each lap as the course got more burned in, and the racers knew what was coming. Evans final (4th Lap) was 32.10

There were only 4 racers who completed 4 laps. 10 racers who completed 3 laps, 5 racers who completed 2 laps, and 10 racers who completed just one lap. Only one racer tapped out due to not feeling 100% We were very happy to see out course was manageable by all given enough time. And we were pleased to have no injury reported

After the race, the afternoon riders and spectators were excited to get on different sections of the course to try it out. It was very fun to see the family, friends, from 12 years old and up, out on the course, riding different sections. People also enjoyed the use of our trails, and free riding late into the evening. Excited for next year!

Training Events general overview

Start with an an adventurous drive (no RV's or trailers) 6 miles up a dirt road to a rugged and private purpose built Hard Enduro training property in Montana USA. Pre and post nights camping is encouraged and free for our events. Because we anticipate people traveling long distnces to be part of an event, we want logistics to be easy for them. Self reliant camping is required, property is completely off the grid. RV camping at a proper campground only 13 miles away as long as you can unhook and drive truck into XCenduro Land.


The day in a nutshell:  Learn training drills, learn fundamental techniques, one-on-one training, Hard Enduro Bike set-up, real world obstacle training, and extreme trail riding with our Star Guest throughout the whole trail system of our Property. Milage is low, gnarly scale is high. Our events are unhurried and take the majority of the day, all on private property that has been purpose developed for this unique experience. A detailed daily schedule will be provided for each event to fit with the plans of the Star Guest. By the end of the day our goal is to see you dramatically improve your Hard Enduro technique, confidence, abilities and knowledge.

The main proceeds go to the event Star Guest and the cost of putting the event on (food, insurance, etc.)  Pricing is highly variable between out Star Guests based on may things like distance the event host needs to travel to get here, whether we need to supply a bike, travel accommodations, etc..as well as group size, additional helpers, etc...

The start of 'Goat trail'

Our Property

Extreme terrain

The Gathering Point

The Gathering Point

Steep, gnarly, technical trails and established bailouts make our 160 acre compound the perfect place to come test your skill, strength and endurance. Nasty rock sections, technical climbs, steep decents, and challenging single track are abundant . See something new you want to try, we encourage it!  Two well established dirt roads allow for easy spectating. Pets are welcome here, but keep in mind Montana is wild; Elk, Bear and Mountain Lion are frequent visitors here.

Our base camp is 6 miles off pavement up a well established dirt road. Getting steep and narrow in parts, four wheel drive is recommended but is not required. Moto vans do OK, just take it easy :-) No Rv's or trailers.  We are fully off the grid so no electricity or water, being self reliant is important. If you want the luxuries of a proper RV camp with full hookups, we recommend staying 13.5 miles away on the Clark Fork River at Bearmouth RV Park , then just drive up in your truck.(www.bearmouthchalet.com)

XCenduro Extreme 3 day Ride event

Ride Till You Drop

What is it: An organized group ride into Montanas back country.  3 long days. 12 riders total. Fitness is key, intermediate to advanced technical single track riders only. Safety in numbers! We all now too many people on a group ride can turn into a shit show, however, a well planned, organized group can function as a safe and really fun group ride. We are in it together, taking on the shared responsibility of looking out for each other and making sure we all make out of the mountains each night.

Trails/Route: The event will used established dirtbike trails in Montana's high country. Expect 3 long demanding days on the bikes riding epic singletrack. Everything from fast and flowing to slow and technical sections, we have planned a ride to do it all . Days will be long, well planned, with early bailout points established  incase of an emergency bike  mechanical, or injury. Remember, this is a group ride so we all are assuming responsibility for eachother. There will likely be a few tough sections of the day when some of the weaker riders in the group may need help. Adventure as opposed to speed is not the central theme of the days, but will be keeping up a good pace throughout in order to cover the long distances. fitness is key, so adequate seat time before this group ride is important. Expect to be on bike between 6-9 hours each day. One day we will need to  have a planned gas stop to have fuel for the milage.

Responsibility: As we are venturing deep into the Montana high country each day, having a reliable and well maintained bike is key. No one wants to be having an unnecessary mechanical issue 20 miles into the mountains. We all are assuming responsibility for each other, therefore we all need to make sure we come with a well maintained reliable dirtbike.

Accommodations: We will be sharing the cost of an appropriate sized vacation rental house that can accommodate our group. Although we expect a social element to this event, the main focus is the riding. Each evening you will be extremely happy to hit the sack and recharge for the next day. Save going hard on whiskey for the last night :-)

Meals: Breakfast will be at the vacation house each morning before we depart. Lunch will be on the trail. We will need to pack lunched each morning. Dinner will either be at the house, or in town at a restaurant that can accommodate our group depending on the day.Any dining out can be at everyone's own expense, and all food at the house will be a shared expense from a group food kitty. 

Logistics: Each morning after breakfast, we have a short drive to the various stage spots. We can share driving/transport responsibilities as they are minimal.

Preview: Without giving away all the awesomeness of each day, we do want to set the expectations for the area and trails we will be using. See the photos below  to get an idea of what this incredible 3 day ride will include. 

More details to come: We will be updating the description to provide more helpful information and set official dates soon. Expect early September, when the days are still long, all trails are free of down fall, the weather is crisp and perfect for riding.


If you are interested in this event and you like to get updates once we set a dates and start accepting members, please email and ask for more information about the September Group ride: xcenduroland@gmail.com

About Us

Inspired by The King of Hard Enduro

XCenduro Land (named after the owners Instagram) was created by Joe Stebbins after attending a training even with the "King of Hard Enduro" Graham Jarvis. After an exhausting day training and learning an incredible amount, Joe jumped at the chance to travel to Spain for one of Graham's Signature Tours which also involves plenty of training. Learning drills to practice is one thing, but actually spending time in person, getting real time feedback, learning your mistakes and being corrected and helped through extreme terrain form Graham was simply incredible. Joe still claims he learned more in one day training, riding and being coached by Graham that from weeks of attempting to ride gnarly terrain on his own (not only from one-on-one help but from seeing in person techniques broken down set-by-step by Jarvis). So instead of traveling the world trying to learn from the best riders on the planet, the idea was foraged to put together a plan to bring the best right to our doorstep here in Montana.


Riding more Extreme Hard Enduro style trails has become more and more popular each year. What makes this style of riding so much more fun is knowing proper technique in order to conserve energy, ride efficiently, safely and more effectively. Let us handle all the details of the event, all you need to do is show up ready to learn, ride and hang with one of the best Endure riders on the planet, and go home a much improved extreme enduro rider.
